Today AI note ·

Chai: Chat AI Platform shipped v0.4.440 with generic bug fixes, driving daily downloads from 6,262 to ~10k. Despite this volume growth, the app slipped to #12 in GB Entertainment Grossing and held that spot through the week. User sentiment remains poor, with ratings reported between 2.2 and 2.7 stars. Recent reviews highlight dissatisfaction with new 'pieces' monetization limiting free chatting, though some praise character memory. The update did not address core complaints about pay-to-chat mechanics, suggesting download surges stem from curiosity or external factors rather than improved user experience. Competitive pressure or algorithmic shifts may explain the ranking drop despite higher engagement.
